Communications

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:

Processing protocols for handling 305 Files, including requirements for scoping files, longevity of files in ICRC during processing, requirements for "checking out" 305 files, and requirements for areas where review of 305 files may be performed in privacy. Please include past deprecated instructions relevant to this request, even if superseded by current guidance. Please include a count of materials excluded from this request, if denied in part.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that fees cannot be waived, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM, DVD-R, or BD-R if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires.

The FBI has received your Freedom of Information Act/Privacy (FOIPA) request and it will be forwarded to Initial Processing for review. Your request will be processed under the provisions of FOIPA and a response will be mailed to you at a later date.

Requests for fee waivers and expedited processing will be addressed once your request has been assigned an FOIPA request number. You will receive written notification of the FBI’s decision.
